Sharon and Jeff in Negril, Jamaica

Getting married abroad was a natural choice for
Sharon Wong and Jeff
Roush. The couple, who are both
avid travelers, wanted to share
this passion with their wedding
guests. While looking for a
location, Sharon and Jeff kept
two things in mind: proximity
and affordability, eventually
narrowing it down to Jamaica.

"We thought Negril's
spectacular limestone bluffs
and mellow reggae vibe would
be the perfect backdrop," says
Sharon. They selected the
intimate Tensing Pen resort
for their venue. "It was small
enough that we could book the
whole resort," she adds. "Doing
so guaranteed our guests a
special experience and allowed
us to have a private wedding,
which was very important."
